Thanks!

Interesting, the other numbers all match the graphs, but that one is wrong.

I would report it to them but it seems like you need a github account to do that.

June 11 here too lol

Beehaw might be a good one.

I wouldn’t call an 8% drop “downfall”. I think it will shrink and grow over time, but I expect the growth pattern will be in waves - migrations of people coming in response to changes in Reddit or other causes, followed by periods of retraction as some people lose interest or decide it’s not for them.

From my feeling, it seems pretty steady at the moment. I wouldn’t mind if it got bigger, especially to make some more niche communities possible. But I’m not worried about it.

I think the best solution to this is a way to migrate an account to another instance, which I’ve heard is in the works.

While the Spike Jonze film Her (2013) explored a romance between a man and his virtual personal assistant, 10 years earlier, the movie Demolition Man looked at how technology could play a role in sexual relationships. In an iconic scene, a character played by Arnold Schwarzenegger has virtual sex with Sandra Bullock.

Was this article written by AI? Arnold Schwarzenegger wasn’t in Demolition Man, and 1993 was not ten years before 2013.

I never realized the importance of squatting.

Well, if you trust Wikipedia as a source, the second paragraph of the article on the World Wide Web starts out:

“The Web was invented by English computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee…”

It was an article about the results of a survey about smartphone use. Seems very relevant.

I get the feeling that most of these "experience’ things I’ve been hearing about lately are low effort cash grabs.

I almost never click a video by someone I don’t know these days. It’s almost always a waste of time.

There must be a dozen or so Misskey forks. I know of Sharkey, Firefish, and Iceshrimp.

Thanks!

Thanks for the info!

Thanks! This got me some other stuff mixed in, but searching “flipboard.com” worked well.

How do I find the accounts to follow? Is there a list somewhere?

I like @DarthPutinKGB rounding out the list at #100.

That’s true. I guess I like the idea of being able to distribute a community across servers, but it may be more trouble than it’s worth to implement.

I personally don’t think this is a huge issue, but it is an issue. I usually pick the biggest community on a topic, or if there are multiple that are fairly active, subscribe to both/all. The only real complaint I have about it is that users will often make the same post to both communities, so I see duplicate posts on my timeline and the discussion is split in half.

I do think it would be nice if there was a way for community mods to choose to combine two communities across instances, in a way that they would appear as a single community to users. I don’t know how that would be implemented though.
